Case of Mr John Powny on the Marine of the revolution not on continental establish- ment - Claim is not embraced by the law - see

War Department, Pension Office, January 8. 1830
Sir,
The declaration of John Ewing has been examined and placed on our files. On searching the rolls it appears that Captain George Elliot, who commanded the Row Galley, in which he served, belonged to the marine forces of the State of Virginia, and was not on the continental establishment. As the law does not provide for such cases, his claim has been rejected. I herewith return, agreeably to your request, the letter of Mr. Kennett, which accompanied Mr. Ewing's declaration.
I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully
Your Obet. Servt.
J. L. Edwards
Hon. R. M. Johnson, House of Representatives

August 26, 1854,
Sir, I reply to that portion of the letter of W. G. Woodson. In which relates to the the claim of John deed Luring, when claim- ing, on the 4 th of Dec 1834, suspended of His offer, for the reason that he was not living at the passage of the Act of June 7. 1832, after an assumed that if he had a child or children, living, they must be now entitled to a pension for one year since  at the rate of $40 per annum  in the State troops of Virginia Under said Act of June 7, 1832, as amended by the 2 d Section of the Act of July 4, 1836, from the 4 th of March 1831 to the day of Luring's  his death. To entitle the claim, the claim,

a child of said John Luing, whose identity must be fully shown, should make a dis- claimer according to the form herewith sent.
Luing's widow having died in 1836, there is no law which embraces her case - the marriage having taken place 1825.
